Which fuel pump for 1.6 SPI on SU HIF 44

Post by Jordi » Mon Mar 18, 2013 8:03 pm

Just been onto RW and my bits won't be long. Need to source a fuel pump. Looked through a few threads and the info i got was "low pressure facet fuel pump"

http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewit ... 0389906073

Found that one. Just wondered if anyone had used it (think Twiss has used it before). Is it any good? Anything cheaper/better to use?

Cheers

Thats the one I have Jordi - works great with the su, dont think you will find it cheaper than that! Sure I paid more than that last year! its says to mount it as near to the tank as poss - which i did at first, but was sometimes a bit noisy. Since I moved it under the bonnet its never missed a beat. Think Twiss has his there too.

Couldn't have asked for a better answer than that.

Cheers bud.

Seen a few for the £20 mark.

Have the facet under the bonnet. Have an inline filter before it which I changed today (noticed the pump was gettin noisy and the engine was not runnin right). The pump primed the line back up in seconds and she was runnin smooth before a minuit. Can't fault it. I have the 50106- slightly higher pressure, don't know if that makes a difference?

Ordered this one in the end http://item.mobileweb.ebay.co.uk/viewit ... 0454853732

Spec seems to match the recommended requirement.
